Increasing rental growth and rising values


Profit after tax for the period increased to SEK 4,346m (2,054), corresponding
to earnings per share of SEK 26.28 (12.42). Profit before tax for the period
rose to SEK 5,166m (2,637). Rental income amounted to SEK 1,573m (1,493) and net
operating income to SEK 1,125m (1,080. In an identical portfolio, rental income
rose by around 9 per cent and net operating income increased by roughly 10 per
cent. The average yield requirement declined during the period to a rounded off
figure of 4.70 per cent (4.94 at year-end).
The effect of new lettings and renegotiations at good levels has gradually had a
greater impact on valuations during the year.

All three parts of the business model contributed positively to earnings.
Property Management generated net operating income of SEK 1,044m (1,035),
corresponding to a surplus ratio of 73 per cent (73). The occupancy rate was 94
per cent (92). Profit from property management was SEK 663m (515). Unrealised
changes in the value of properties amounted to SEK 3,312m (1,631).

Property Development reported net operating income of SEK 81m (45), making a
surplus ratio of 56 per cent (58). Earnings from property management totalled
SEK –26m (1). Unrealised changes in the value of properties amounted to SEK
1,166m (339).

Transactions realised changes in value of SEK 182m (4) through property sales
during the period.

- The favourable conditions, with rising rent levels, falling yield requirements
and persistently very low interest rates are enduring, and we are seeing
continued strong demand and rising values for quality properties, which is also
reflected in earnings for the period, comments Christian Hermelin, CEO Fabege.
